PROGRAMOVERVIEW

The NBS Summer Consulting Internship Program (SCIP) is designed to provide participants with a global view of business by working directly with Chinese companies in the process of growth and expansion. Students apply creativity, entrepreneurship and global best practices to help their clients refine their corporate strategy and implementation planning.

The program blends innovative course design with interaction, consulting experience and cultural tours. It also unites students from diverse educational and cultural backgrounds in the spirit of learning, open-mindedness and debate, while at the same time providing a deeper understanding of Chinese business philosophy and culture through first-hand experience.During the internship program, the school will also offer lectures about Chinese Management Case Studies, Cross Culture Communication and practical Business Chinese language.

Our program is a group-based learning experience in which 4-5 students are placed into a Chinese company for a four-week placement in a consulting engagement.

The consulting engagement allows the students to analyze a particular problem in the company and propose a formal solution to the issue, using internal and external information as appropriate. Each group of students will have an internal client manager to facilitate access to others within the company, an experienced management consultant mentor to oversee their progress and an internship tutor to help with translation and basic issues of living in a foreign country.

PROGRAM SCHEDULE

Typical Consulting Projects

While every client engagement is unique,

past SCIP classes have worked with

Chinese clients on issues of corporate

strategy, target market identification,

go-to-market strategy, market prioritization

and even internal corporate development

challenges. In each case the students

were faced with the same challenges that

senior management face each day:

identifying the key opportunities for growth

and understanding the corporate

resources needed to secure those

opportunities.

The clients who host the SCIP internship

students range from extremely large,

state-owned (the fifth largest construction

company on earth) and publicly traded

companies (the largest therapeutic tea

company in China), to venture capital

backed big-data based financial services

and shopping start-ups.

Students have found that this process of

deep research and close interaction with

their teammates, consulting mentor and

client staff has been among the most

exciting and challenging working

experiences of their lives.In most cases

the students are able to present their final

analysis to the client’s senior-most

managers and sometimes even the board

of directors – something that many people

do not do in their entire working career.

Students who are comfortable asking

questions and embracing uncertainty as

they build the case for their client’s

strategy will find the program intensely

rewarding and unlike any program they

have ever undertaken.

Our approach works. Since we launched

the program, our students have identified

new markets, innovative business models,

overlooked geographies and even new

products that have the potential to

increase the client’s business. We

welcome you to apply for this unique

program and prepare yourself for global

business in the 21st Century.
